Background
With the progress of society and people's attention to personal choice, more and more women choose to postpone childbearing under the condition of stable career and good economic conditions. However, the growth of age will have an irreversible impact on women's fertility, making the elderly childbearing a common phenomenon. Having children at the age of 43, there is not only a certain success rate, but also many challenges and difficulties. This article will elaborate on the success rate and solutions of childbearing at the age of 43 from four aspects: age factors, reproductive medicine technology, lifestyle changes and psychological support.
Influence of age
Female reproductive ability is significantly affected by age. With the growth of age, women's ovarian function gradually declines, and the quality and quantity of eggs will decrease, leading to increased difficulty in pregnancy. According to statistics, 43 year old women have only about 20% chance of getting pregnant every month. In addition, older women face higher risk of miscarriage and the possibility of birth defects. In order to increase the fertility success rate, it is recommended that 43 year old women receive a comprehensive physical examination before preparing for pregnancy to understand their physical condition and ovarian reserve, as well as whether they have other potential diseases.
As an elderly woman, receiving in vitro fertilization (IVF) is one of the effective means to improve the chance of pregnancy. IVF takes out female eggs and male sperm, fertilizes them in the laboratory, and then transfers the fertilized eggs back to the female uterus to increase the chance of pregnancy. In recent years, many hospitals and expert teams have made remarkable progress in IVF technology, which has greatly improved the success rate of elderly mothers.
In addition, surrogacy technology is also a solution. If women's ovarian function has declined to the point where they cannot ovulate, or there are other serious reproductive system problems, surrogacy technology can be considered. Surrogate is to embed the fertilized egg into the womb of the surrogate mother to conceive the embryo, and then give the baby to the birth parents to raise after birth. Before choosing surrogacy, legal consultation and application are required to ensure compliance with relevant laws and ethics.
Change lifestyle
In the face of the challenges of elderly childbearing, changing lifestyle can play a positive role in supporting. First of all, maintaining healthy eating habits is crucial to improving the fertility success rate. Older women can add nutritious foods, such as fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains and protein rich foods. In addition, moderate exercise, keeping a healthy weight and keeping away from harmful substances, such as tobacco and alcohol, also have a positive impact on fertility.
It is also important to maintain mental health. It is easy to feel anxious and depressed in the face of the difficulties and uncertainties of elderly childbearing. It is suggested that the elderly mothers communicate and support with their families, friends or professional psychological consultants. Participation in psychological counseling courses and relaxation skills training can help mothers better regulate their emotions and reduce stress.
At the same time, elderly pregnant women should reasonably arrange their own lives and work to avoid overwork and excessive pressure. Reasonable rest and working time arrangement will help maintain physical and mental health and improve the fertility success rate.
Support and psychological counseling of medical team
The elderly childbirth needs the full support and guidance of the medical team. Select a real professional hospital, establish close contact with doctors and nurses, and conduct comprehensive consultation and inspection. Doctors can formulate appropriate birth plans according to personal conditions, and provide professional advice and treatment plans.
In addition, psychological counseling plays a key role in the elderly childbearing. The hospital can provide psychological counseling services to help mothers understand their emotional changes and reproductive pressure. Psychological counseling can reduce anxiety and depression symptoms, enhance maternal self-confidence, and improve the success rate of childbirth. In the process of hospital selection, it is very important for elderly mothers to know whether the hospital provides psychological support services.
summary
Although the success rate of fertility at the age of 43 is relatively low, we can improve the chances of fertility success by changing our lifestyle, receiving assistance from reproductive medicine technology and obtaining full support from the medical team. In addition, reasonable psychological guidance and support are equally important, which can help mothers actively cope with emotional changes and pressure during childbirth. To sum up, the success rate of childbearing at the age of 43 depends on individual factors and the choice of the correct solution, which will ultimately need to be followed up. I hope this article can give some help and guidance to the elderly mothers.
